Monday Jan 23, 2017
A concise introduction to key concepts of statistics, explained in as clear a manner as possible. Includes a discussion of key concepts of probability, types of statistical data, sampling methods, the difference between descriptive and inferential statistics, statistical significance, and p-values. I conclude with a brief look at three common statistical tests; the chi-square test, t-test, and linear regression.

Thanks. Very very nice recap (or intro, but quite intense for an intro) on basics of statistics. As soon to be resident doctor, I wanted a podcast to refresh my memories on basic stats. This is the best I've found for now.
